About Me:
Hi! My name is Alison, and I am a first-year at Duke University in the Pratt School of Engineering. I am majoring in Mechanical Engineering with a most likely double major in Physics as well as a minor in Spanish. I am from Nashville, Tennessee.
Name Pronunciation:
My name pronunciation is pretty straightforward. The thing that tends to be hard for people is spelling Alison with one L and Korn with a K.
Interests/Fun Facts:
- Watching and playing sports (I have played seven sports in my life, and love to play Spikeball on the quad.)
- Singing and listening to music (I'm in a Duke a capella group.)
- Reading and writing (I am a huge grammar nerd and write for the Duke Chronicle.)
- Eating ice cream (I could eat ice cream when it is 10 degrees outside.)
- Outdoor activities (I love to hike, camp, and explore nature.)
- Play board games with friends (but not the basic ones like Monopoly and Life--true board games)(I have currently have 7 in my dorm room.)
- Watch movies (I am currently working on a 100-bucket-list movie poster!)
- Engineering (I don't have too many engineering skills but right now I am trying to teach myself to 3D print.)
